The Philosophies of Conscious Leading
In many organizations, being people-centered is considered soft, irrelevant, and unrelated to profitability. Based on the video, “Everybody Matters: A Documentary Short Based on the Best Selling Book” and the assigned readings on conscious capitalism, contemplate the conscious capitalism principles (e.g., conscious leadership, stakeholder orientation, conscious culture, and higher purpose) as a framework.
